ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. WELLS, 44.gtiosT 94 clv/T. ny.......;.WlflitEitS V. 'IIIOV/laf. This wee an action against tile ownerof a treding.ve6sel eariih,,f up tolividgiwateti , for wages 'alleged to be due to the plaintiff, as master of the'-easel. The Jury returned a verdict for the defindent. The test of the dt/tWa9 occupied in the trial of an action' of trespius respectini a liability to repair the fences between two farm. 1 eftOW Pi SI bT• Richard G"ibso►z, a young xnan in the dress, orAh‘bour" ing farmer, was indicted ►or stealing an iron chest, two. canisters, and several articles from a dwelling-hoise, The charge of stealing from the dwelling-house was aftet - wards abandoned, the articles being deposited in a counting house, distinct from the house : and the offence was, there- fore, reduced to thi mere stealing. The offence itself had nothing extraordinary in its cutnitances, hut the after consequences were of a very serious nature to the prisoner, and probably to his comps- none, if he had any, The prosecutor, who, well a mer chant, was awoke in the night of the robbery by an ex plosion which shook his house. It turned out on eXtittli , - nation that some thieves had broken open his counting house, and taken away his iron-chest, with two canisters, which in fact contained several pounds of gunpowder. The thieves, no doubt, supposed they contained sottie thing more valuable; for having gotten just out" of the house, they, no doubt, proceeded to examine. the Contents of the canisters; and being off their guard, they must have incautiously applied a light. But whatever might have been the cause, the_ effects were obvious. The explosion has already been mentioned. ,The particles of the iron chest, were discovered ; the chest, itself being blown to pieces so as to have lost all form. Its contents (chiegy deeds and papers) were scattered about, partially burnt; spots of blood were perceivable on some portions.- of the chest; and a button, apparently front a man's jacket, was found on one of the pleces. Suspicion fell upon the pri soner; and a, constable went to his lodgings. He was found in bedi his taCe dreadfully - scorched ; . 'lds eyelids destroyed,and a shOcking lacerated wound on one of his legc. , For the scorching on his face he did not profesato account ; but the wound on his leg he ascribed to his having fallen from a wall which he bad attempted to climb; and.in the fall he said a stone had come upon his leg. A surgeon examined his leg, and said that no stone under. such circumstances could produce a wound of such severity. The learned Judge left these circumstances to the jury, observing on their ,strength, that they all .contributed to lx the guilt upon the prisoner, but giving him all the benefit of the observation, that they did not amount to ',positive proof. The jury found him Guilty; and sentence was for the present postponed. _ Jahn Chappell, aged 27, was indicted' for stealing a 414104 of hay, the property of James Dudden. The Jury returned a verdict of acquittal. Phaibe Rpopir, aged about 50, and apparently a res pectable woman, was indicted for felonioudy marrying Jonathan Puxtone, her former husband; Wm. Hooper, being living. it. was proved that a Marriage had taken place in 1819, between a man named Hooper, and a female supposed to be the prisoner, by her maiden name, of Holloway ; but the witness, the parish clerk, who was called to prove this fact, sailhe was: not certain:of the prisoner's identity.' She appeared to be the same Woman ; but she was, if the same, , very much altered in appearance. The second marriage with one Paxton., a farmer, in the present year, (as well actheprianneee identity with regard to this Mas riage), was clearly proved. This took 'place in April in the present year. To clear up the fact as. to the identity of the prisOner on tilt first 'marriage, the constable who apprehended her was called. Site was living with her tecond husband, fanner Pustone, at the time. When told there was. ear warrant against he for bigamy, she . said it Irks nqnsalble, 4,there bed been an agreement between is thein,•'-an agreement prepared by a lawyer ; and there- lore o, 44t atitt could not be made to believe that there could be any legal char " ge egainat her. The meaning of the ettiression them would be clearly made out, as re fening to the two luistands, if the conversation on the seine sultiect, at the same _time, bet occurring while the prisoner.was dressing herself in order to, go to, prison, could be Made legal evidence , against her; - but as it took piare in her absence, it wary not admitted in evidence. Upon, tins defect : in the care on the part •thAproseen tion, the Learned Judge directed ran acquittal, because, although it had been , proved that there hail been a mar riage between two persons in the year 1819, it was not proved either by evidence, or by the prisoner's confession, that she was one of them. The -jnry accordingly acquitted' her. The prisoner, from, her appearance and manner, as well as from her de portment throughout. the trial, exvited the sympathy of every person in Court. Nothing was alleged against her che ratter in any respect whatever. Sarah Ireooer, a young woman of a very interesting ap pearance, was indicted for intermarrying with William Greendale, her first.husband, John Webber, still living. Having a baby in her arms, she was accommodated with a chair. Examined copies of the registers of both. marriages , were put in evidence ; one was from the pariah church of Bathellon, in this county, certifying the - Marriage of John Webber and Sarah Parkman (the pritionei)'- on the 18th October, 1818. The second .was from Tiverton eliorch, iii flat onsbire setting forth the marriage of William, Greendsteind Sarah Parkman on the 2lat" Feb. 1525, Joieph Webber atsidthat he was brother to John Weli ber r the first husband of the prisoner.

His brother and she liVed ,very unhappily together. !Witness here gave several instances Of unhappy differences between the prisoner and husband. He saw his brother, 'John Webber, on the 7th of June last. fie was then in good health: Another Witness proVed that, he was present at the marriage of priSoner and Greendide at Tiverton church, on the 21e of February, 1825. He also saw John Webber lately. , Two witnesses called for the defence, said that the PO' toner and 'Webber lived most unhappily together.

It was in this paper (the Stdopian Journal) the libel first appeared ; and the Birminghanaournal, against which the preceding verdict of 4001. was given, merely copied it. The evidence, as we before said, was verbatim the same in both cases. CROWN COURT. At the sitting of the Court, the prisoners who were convicted yesterday, part of the confederated gang who infested this county, were arranged in dui dock, and two of them were hroughtin last, and placed at the bar, being '! , elected'ati an eiample, and left to undergo the awful sen tence of the law., Their names are William Mills and 'Thomas Gyrdner,.poth young min. Mr. Baron Garrow passed sentence of death upon the prisoners,: who were dreadfully agitated during the awful ceremony. The other prisoners were then. severely admonished for their transgressions, and entreated to establish a new and a better character in the different society into which they were now about to be introduced. They were then sen tenced to different terms of transportation, some for life, and otheis for 14 years, and a few for seven years. Charier Bence, Henry .Tobn, Tlrilliam All, and Dr. Turner, were indicted for having, on the ,evening of Sun day, the 16th of July, and also on the ensuing day, assem bled together in the parish of Berkeley, in an unlawful and riotous manner, and being armed with sticks and other weapons, committed several breaches of the peace, and particulatly on John:Cotter. At the recommendation of the Learned Judge, the pri soners pleaded " guilty," and were discharged, upon en tering into their own recognizances, in the sum of 201. each, to keep the peace. It appeared from Mr. Curwood's statement, that had it not been for Colonel Berkeley, and othm members of his family, who were near the spot at the time, at. serious riot would have taken place, owing to the spirit manifested to expel the Irish labourers. Mr. Baron Garrow said that the neighbourhobd ought to feel indebted to Colonel Berkeley for his prOmptatid effetitind interference pn the occasion. The Crown businesa being finished, Mr. Baron Garrow left town, leaving Gardner and Mills for execution. The Grand Jury bad found 30 bills against the one, l 8 of which were for burglaries, and 16 against the other, 11 of which were for similar offences. FRENCH PAPERS. (Front the "'tusk of August 10.) LtstioN, JULY 21.:--The Intendant of Police issued, on the 14th of this month, a very severe Ortlinatitte against thost"who applaud et the theatre ; he threatens them with a considerable flue, • luittirltionunent, and exclusion from the theatre. The Members Or die craateet,* Decree of the'l3tli, for 'the purpose of taking measure, preparatory to the election of Peputies, have addresied a letter on the .subject to the Oovernment. The Regency hill received the following news from Oporto : Your Serene' Highness !—The importance of the dis— patches‘Which have successively arrived in this City, ton renting the new, political institutions which bur legitimate Sovereign,' Don Pedro IV. has thought fit• to give to the Kingdoms of Portugal and Algarve—the rapi d and sur prising development of opinion, in all claw" of individu . ale composing the population---the influence which our opinion, so general, and so strongly pronounced may, in II few days,. perhaps in terns moments, have 011 the tran quillity of the . whole kingdont," obliges Inc to call the at tention of your Royal Highness, to what is passing here. The first news.pronolinced in this City, created the ut most joy ; all proclaimed the new charter, the only post of safety for the State: but in the midst of the general traria port it. was easy to distinguish, also, the most fine and ene getic resolution to exact the full execution of the benefits of the Sovereign, and this resolution gained strength in proportional the silence of the official Gazette,,on. the sub jeot of such important evenM, gave birth to terribledistrust,fouuded on au idea, that it was intended to oppose the execution of the benefits o f Sovereign. Amidst a ,people so full of enthusiasm, it was impossible that the sentiments which agitated them should not be communicated to the troops of the garrison, and, in fart; they soon showed themselves animated by ,the same joy, and ere now agitated by the ante distrnst. The peiceible character 'of the inhabitants, and the discipline which I have maintained' among - the, troops, have hitherto kept them within bounds of duty and moderation, and they have contented themselves, for the two .last evenings, with manifesting, in the Theatre, -the whole extent of their enthusiasm, butt with tht greatest order and roped fin• the authorities.. Yet I must frankly tell your Higbee**, that if this state of uncertainty awl distrust is suffered to continne,:and if t first post does nut bringpositive orders for the oath to the Constitutional charter, it is impossible to preserve tranquillity, or to, calculate the fatal consequences of such a state of things. The inherit/wt., officers, and privates, have but one opinion--Oue affection —fall of love and fidelity to the sacred person of their legitimate Sovereign, Den Pedro IV. ; all loudly demand the full accomplishment of his desires ; all understand that the Govern ment of these kingdoms, after having been confirmed by the De cree of the 20th April last, derives its authority and its power from this-DeCree alone, and that it,uannot legally impede, prevent, or retard the execution of the Decree of ow Savereign. Let obedience to the Decrees of our Sovereign be in unison with .the knowledge, the right, and the wants of the age, and, from this concord there will result a force which it is highly dangerous to attempt to paralyse. • The: of Portugal depends entirely upon yoer Hi gh ~ nese; it • it to you alone, that the Constitutional Charter confides the lle endfill delay of the Ilatteluh,Ytrniddexttecu"ti‘oZortrett_7lflattlittaire, srauui to the people t 9 be an effect of the efforts of persona who are interested it, keeping them 'elves in power,.and in deferring the esta . b . liahment'of the paternal 14 'IMeY of your Ili!hness, The the of i t l l i t e c h If4 o t n h th of tide month bee nut, ispelled the .general distrust w • `'`'"teary, bra. bean: tilua increased by the accounts received froth' "on, toneerniug the . discord whicleentne-perverse persons haVe ,endeavoured to excite attiring ,the troops atilt garrison.

(From the:Touren - I des Debit's 4., August 9.) PA gis, Ana. 9.--The conferences at Ackermann are about to be opened; and already indications, the most unequivocal, develope pretensions on the part of the Turk., which would reorder all chance of accommodation impossible. Au authentic letter from Ckinstan tinople, asserts, that the Turkish Commissioners have received in structimas to thiclare, itf t4e.narnt:of #errs master, that, as the Sultan has shown so great a cimfidenoe in Russia, by withdrawing all his troops f r om Wellaclieamd Moldavia, expects also, that, the Ethperor will on hie part, pay him (the Sultan) a token of ie spect, by, causirig to be restored to him the 'Turkish fortreeses in Asia, which have been occupied by the RUssians since 1912, and which ought to have been 'Oyes into to the Turks according to the Treaty of Bucharest. These entitle forts, which' were formerly the marts for the purchase of white slaVes. • . This demand is insinuated in a passage of the 'Turkish note, in reply to the Russian-ultimatum, in which the Turks speak of the, literal execution of Treaties. What, however, will he the result of the renewal of this demand at Ackermann? The uneasiness of the Austrian and English Diplomatists is ap parent, from an article in the Gaze* of Augsburg, in which a wish is expressed, " That the Turks, in duly appreciating the real motives of the Emperor' of Russia's contiemcension, may not be carried away ~by misplaced and embarrassing pretensions, which would lengthen those confereme, from which the world expect the preaervation of peace." in • • These advices will not, all probability, make a great im pression on the Sultan, at present intoxicated with his sudden ,- victory over the Janissaries ; and who , according to the last ac counts, has caused four Paellas to cross from Asia into Europe, with 12,000 seimens, in order to dissolve and exterminate the corps of the ,Yamaks, or Gum* of the Castles of the Bosphorus. 'The victorious- Sultan will nut nasslesstand how his demand of the execution of the Treaty of Bucharest can he found misplaced, or how the re-establishment of the trade . in Whitt‘ in the former markets of Mingrelia, can, in the sligheit degree ern/wrote Russia. It is stated in a paper of this morning--" That it is through the interference of the Duchess of AlbUferri, that the Count de Sur villiers (Joseph Bonaparte) has obtained, front the French Go vernment, and through them, from the Allied PoWers, permission to reside in Europe. There had been two diplomatic meetings at the house of Baron, tie Damao, and it is said the Roman States had been there fixed upon, but the Prince of Castelcicala, the Neapo litan Ambassador, vehemently opposed that proposal. After sonic discussion, Belgium was decided on. Persons well inforined, as sure us, that the fortune of the Count tie Survilliers does not amount to ley* than, eighty millions of francs." (From the Quotidienne.) (PRIVATI COMLESPONIANCE.) PIRA, JULY 11.—You have etc now received the letter in Which I gave you the details of the revolution effected in Constan tinople, on the lath, 16th, and 17th of last month. Sultan Mali mond, more fortunate than Selim, has succeeded in destroying the corps, of Janissaries, who, fora long time, have been formidable only to the Sovereigns of this Empire. Ido not doubt that when he news of the massacre of the Janissaries was known in Europe, he event must have excited a movement of horror; but such are the manners of this people, Who, transplanted from 'A sia to Europe : many centuries ago, have still retained their original character.' Besides, the Janissaries having retbsed 'to submit, the 'struggle could not fail to be sanguinary. 'lf the Sultan had given way for a single moment, himielf, his family, the whole of the grandees of the empfre, and many thousands of Topechis, must inevitably hive pe rished. , It is not unlikely, that, all those who were suspected of having approved of the innovations, which we see accomplishing, 'would have been put to death. The carnage would not have stop ped there, for it, assuredly; would have extended to the Franks also. , We are informed,' that, a powerful English Squadron bag ep peered in the Mediterranean, and has rallied the Austrian an►l Neapolitan divisions. Great events, it is probable, are in prepa ration in the straights of the Archipelago. SPAIN. (ettivave .001014.3PONDENCe.)

The intelligence contained in these papers from Portugal, altboUgh of a prior date to the last advices re• ceived direct from Lisbon, are exceedingly interesting. We would particularly direct the attention of our Readers to. a very spirited and sensible letter from the Governor ad interim of the district of Oporto to the Regency, dated the 16th July, describing the enthu= siastic joy of the people and, troops on the first an, nouneement of the Constitutional Charter ; but at the same time frankly declaring that this joy is mixed with a flints and 'energetic : resolution to:, exact tlxe.full exeen tion of the benefits conferred by the Sovereign, and that it will be impossible to preserve tranquillity,' if orders are not immediately received for the oath to . the Con .stitutional Charter. A distrust of the intentions of the Regency appears to have been entertained, and the Gairernor had thns. the manliness to avow it. . The 1.:tolle gives the sequel 'of the intelligence ' received y from Constantinople up to the I .l th July.. The Sultan went on the 9th, in, grand costume, ,to Eski Serai. The manoeuvres lasted an hour, and his Highness expressed great . satisfaction. Reforms con tinue in all departments; down to ,the achtetics or cooks of the Seraglio; whose number is to be reduced to 100. The Journal des Debats asserts, that unequivocal indications, already develope pretensions on the part of the Turks, which will prevent a successful termi nation of the conferences at Ackermann. We doubt whether the Turkish Commissioners have yet given such indications;---but we have never doubted that they wifi do so when the conferences begin. The news from Madrid in these Papers comes dctwn to the 27th July only. Attempts are said to be making to organize, the Spanish Army, and re establish their cmlit and finances. This will be found a work, indeed of ilet:eulean labour. ItNCH FUNDIi....aPARta s 9. l —.Five per Coati, 100 f, 60c. t , Three per Cents.

Could any thing be a better comment on the absurdity of our Law of Libet? , . From the press of other matter yesterday we were unable to findroom.for a few: remarks which a pro ceeding at Bow-street the day before gives rise to. --_ A . respectable Bookseller in Tavistock-street WaS summoned before Sir R. BIRNIE, on a charge 'made. by the mother of a boy employed by him, that her son had been struck on the cheek by his master. Mr. BLACK i the tradesman accused of this dreadful out rage, admitted that he had chastised the boy, " because he was repeating the words of an. indecent song, which. he was in the act of writing out." Sir R. BIRNIE, instead of applauding Mr. BLACK for correcting the doting rascal who hairstich Obscell prOpensities, exclaimed, with all the pomp of nigh' terial dignity—and with all that 'Species of inverted reasoning which is ,natural to, him,— ~ This, Sir, is no.. justification of your conduct—, you have no right to lay violent hands on boys in your employment ; .EnArland is a land crliberty, Sin • where the meanest shall find protection, and where the infliction of the whip is not to be tolerated., You must either find bail for the present assault, or satisfy this poor,.woman for the blow you struck her son- NOW Ave would ask, whether it is . not preposterous that . a , man, filling the situation which this IN orshipfta Knight holds, should use language such as has. been ascribed to him, in a case which, to say the most of it, was a very innocent infraction of the strictest con struction of the law, for, the praiseworthy motive of stopping the repetition of an obscene song, by a boy, Whose general conduct appears to have been bed, if we may judge by. the fact of Mr. BLACK'S p artner, having also found it necessary to punish him o n a preceding occasion? Is it not, we would, ask, most contemptible. fur , 1 ‘ man sitting in the- Magisterial chair, to construe such . an act as a violation of the liberty of England,—l ml to use expressions which could only tend to inflsme the minds of the lower orders against their superi ors, and to make them refuse to submit, even in the p erson of their children, when acting improperly, to a n y re straint or correction? It appears to us that such ! , language is as dangerous in its tendency as it is ;toll contemptibly ridiculous in its application in this c a se- But it is of a piece with every thing which pass" at Bow-itreet. We haiie Jong observed, that if an.Y person of respectability applies at tliat Office for the redress of a wrong, or is summoned upon any charge whatever, lie is treated with vulgarity, an d Ire with insult. A miserable attempt at wit, s ribald joke, or an unmannerly observation, calls forth the laugh of the thief-taking audience of the Bench, ... il l e s : e at i : l tt ai to hl : f e e o i o P ti nt r ri is s ie o ß g ' ad l e a fi d n amd d i t er o m i e n rs g e . s : ai e ..d pe l i l t a h t ag ilo is n m ii o ner t s c l i tie t li a i n en r i t g t o ' l e d qt e o trele r st na a i te n e none criT:fl to. stances of this sort must be in the recollection oiwegrY voted wlic i h b p y er i s i o s n b s ei h n a g ye p b u e b e i n is t i l l i e t (t s i subjected, nteD a h i ty as hpiepeentsegg, with all the Rep o rters earl give it those improvements and which the talen t This has, to out know' ledge, in numerous instances, prevented persons of the t l timhpe i g err, l sr:l i ol e ipni is, strongest't:at I:: andiLtistate thing ra ther anderi:noa respe ctability' ttfa4itbiauelirrs:thto.thingshepa than from Tjiiaiiableri mnaseekingtdoos moss 0, wcbe r redress : it ! ote s c ti s en esi subjectedt i it 1 .1. or c s s ou i b s rus : 9 1 ioet il ~ i l s 'o as lice un O w fli o ce h s y , will, we trust, attract the attention 0 , 1 ous to the interoasftstiolef B b soc e id t i h let er oyr. eb s y ll p t : t i i t , e to , acsoiiitdtit,ctivenliluiria:l THE FUNDS.
